some terrifying nightmare.

#2

You're the worst of them all. No more calling me at night

#3

Yeah!

#4

Nah, she's heard it all before... Good night moon.

#5

on my Wii CrossFit game.

#6

Why are people saying "weird" so much?

#7

No, no, he's, uh... Yeah, I did that.

#8

Kids, you do not have to pretend around me.

#9

I was feeling so stifled.

#10 #11

Dad!

#12

I wish. That's Andy.

#13

Hmm, got some comments, some concerns.

#14

- and he's here to get me. - Oh, my God, Ben!

#15

Don't worry.

#16

- Thanks, babe. Love you. - Yeah.

#17

Are the monsters to blame here?

#18

A little? He fluffs their pillows,

#19

that included a nightmare,

#20

you're really there for them.

#21

We should ask somebody else. That cannot be right.

Well, I wouldn't really call them babies.

#26

'Cause this is where moms with newborns sleep.

#27 #28

I will, after a little power nap.

Good night, hamster.

#35

Holy hell, you just solved a problem that's plagued parents for millennia.

#37

'cause now it's revealed my inexperience!

or when a grandparent dies in front of them.

#39

I had an accident in my bed.

#40

Got some theories.

#41

Oh, I made things worse?

#42

And I told you this is just the way it is.

#43

I'm sorry, but you overstepped this time.

#44

you don't agree. What's going on?

#45

It's because of me she didn't barge in with nightmares,

#46

Hey.

#47

I do coddle them.

#48

But it's been two years. Your kids are doing great.

#49

Wow.

#50

- Mm-hmm! - Is there more to this story?
